Absolutely! Around 90% of our participants are solo hikers and adventurers. We pride ourselves on bringing together like-minded people to create laughs, memories, and friendships. There’s no need to feel nervous about joining us for the first time or trying a new outdoor activity – you’ll be in great company!

We don’t set an upper age limit—if you’re able and willing to safely participate in our experiences, you’re very welcome to join. Some of our walks and events do allow under-18s, but minors must always be accompanied by their parent or guardian, as Ray of Sun Adventures does not hold an AALA Licence.

We closely monitor weather conditions using specialist mountain forecasts. If the forecast predicts dangerous conditions, we will notify you by 4 pm the day before the event, or ideally 24 hours in advance where possible. Weather in mountainous regions can change rapidly. If it’s just rain, the event will likely go ahead. However, if conditions deteriorate significantly on the day, the guide may alter the route or, in rare cases, cancel the event. If an event is cancelled due to weather, an alternative date will be arranged.

For mountain days, you should have a basic level of fitness to handle being on your feet for 6+ hours over potentially rough terrain. We understand that many participants book guided hikes due to limited experience, so we don’t expect you to be super fit. Each event is graded from beginner to advanced—please choose an event suitable for your ability and experience. You will also need to complete a medical waiver acknowledging the risks involved in outdoor activities.

Each hike and event has a different meeting time and location. Please check the "Location and Meeting Time" section on the specific event page for details on where and when to meet.

Not yet, but we are looking into setting up a loyalty scheme to reward returning clients with discounts on future hikes and events.

Dogs are permitted on some of our hikes. They must be well-behaved around strangers and other dogs and kept on a lead at all times. Owners must be responsible for their dog throughout the hike, ensuring they leave no trace and bring poo bags to clean up after them. Please contact us to check which routes are suitable for dogs before booking.

Some meeting points have toilet facilities, and this information is included on the event page. However, we cannot guarantee availability, so please plan accordingly.

Please refer to our Terms and Conditions page for full details.

A detailed kit list is provided on each event page, but generally, you should bring sturdy hiking boots, weather-appropriate clothing, a waterproof jacket, snacks, water, and any personal medication.
